Competitive Process

As mandated by the Transmission Regulation (86/2007), the AESO has been directed to develop and implement a Competitive Process to select a proponent to construct and/or operate major transmission facilities in Alberta. The Competitive Process will create a fair, transparent and openly competitive opportunity for existing and new market participants to develop, own and operate major transmission infrastructure in the province.

The AESO will use the MERX private tender service to manage Competitive Process opportunities.
